Triceratops Teeth
Triceratops teeth are one of the most complex
of all animals that have ever lived.

Comprising 5 layers, and up to 40 ‘batteries’


(columns) on each side of the jaw, an adult
could boast as many as 800 teeth!

These layers allowed Triceratops to munch


through massive amounts of leaves, stems, and
woody branches. When you weigh as much as
2 male elephants, you need a lot of food!
But thankfully, they were herbivores…

The wear and tear of all this chewing was


tremendous, hence so many teeth to replace
ones that got damaged over time.
